I upgraded from qt to qt4, but I noticed that it doesn't contain linguist.
Is it expected to come as a standalone package?
Thank you in advance.

Hello,
I have another problem with this package : it does not provide the "qt" dependency for some AUR-installed packages. Should I remove those packages and reinstall them after the upgrade ?
Below is the output from pacman -Syu
:: Début de la mise à jour complète du système...
:: Remplacer qt par extra/qt4 ? [O/n] <-- I answered "yes"
résolution des dépendances...
recherche des conflits entre paquets...
Erreur : la préparation de la transaction a échoué (la satisfaction des dépendances a échoué)
:: arora-git : requiert qt>=4.6.0
:: kom : requiert qt>=4
:: ktoon : requiert qt>=4
:: ntrack : requiert qt
:: pencil-svn : requiert qt
:: tupi-git : requiert qt
Thanks in advance

Yes, qt5-tools

Not sure that's gonna change anything, since qt4 doesn't provide qt. I believe what needs to be done is update those PKGBUILDs to require qt4 instead of qt.

Or you can edit the 'desc' file of the package in '/var/lib/pacman/local/...'
Probably the last man who knew how it worked had been tortured to death years before.
Or as soon as it was installed. Killing the creator was a traditional method of patent protection.

For anything you got from aur: update/fix/rebuild them with the correct dep. (you might also have to change `qmake` to `qmake-qt4` in the PKGBUILD)
For the future: use LANG=C or LANG=en_GB.utf8 (or some other english locale) when posting output.

Then report the issue to the packages page, but that is how you must proceed.

LOL.
Can we alias qt4 to qt? By the looks of it you are not going to be using qt for qt5, so presumable there'd be no harm just linking to qt4.

No, just No.

No, I want to do this on my own system. I'd rather do that that wait for the many many maintainers to fix their qt deps in AUR because of a trivial, unannounced, unneeded name change. I could well understand if the devs were moving qt5 to qt, but that is clearly not the case.

I'm sure its preparation for qt5?
//edit is see they call qt5 for qt5. Is this some temporary solution as python3 is called python etc?

Would it be a stupid thing to hack the local pacman database?
I.e. find affected packages with
grep '^qt$' /var/lib/pacman/local/*/desc
and replace then qt with qt4 under %DEPENDS%

Thank you, this was the solution for me, without reinstall (after system upgrade) my AUR packages with qt(4) depends.

Is qt5 REPLACING qt4 or is it like python2 and python3 (python)? And what happened to the qt-doc package, as qt5 is different I guess?

qt5 will probably replace qt4 in quite a short timeframe, just as qt4 have now pretty much fully replaced qt3.

Thanks for your answers, I deleted the offending packages and the upgrade went fine.
Sorry for the French output, I will be more careful next time.
